Z/28 Fender Flairs on a 2010 SS?
I have a set of factory Z/28 wheels and am installing the z/28 suspension package. Any suggestions for the fender flares, rocker, bumper cover aftermarket for these offsets?

Will the flares fit.... yes, but because they were meant for the 2014-15 Z/28, it will look unfinished.
Same goes for the side skirts, witch you will need. And same goes for the rear. My plan is this. Buy the flares and rockers, depending on the front end, go with a 2014 Z/28 ( This wont be cheap because you will need headlights, wiring harness, and the Z/28 Front lip) so it will be a plug and play, or ZL1 or even a 1LE lip.... buy a cheap 3D printer and build your own custom end caps to blend the bottom flare to the lip of the car. This goes with the rear, I was going to start this project sometime later this year.

My car is currently in the shop for a banged up front fender. We briefly looked at your approach for the flair installation. The fender blend pieces tie into the front and rear bumper covers at a different height for the refreshed design - especially around the tail lights - so we decided not to go that route. If there were flairs/rockers/blends with bumper covers available now, he could have combined installation and painting with the insurance work. He has more of a production than custom body shop.
PM me if you want any help with your solid models for your printer. There is at a minimum a market of 1 (me) for some custom blend pieces. It seems this approach to an excellent track toy would be popular enough to generate some aftermarket interest. I was hoping for existing kits anyway. You might possibly have the printer pay for itself.
